Hi All… this is a rough out of my entry… im currently messing around with ideas… i want to go into ultra fine detail… seing how i can combine
robotics into an iris … cheers

OK… hi all… my entry is of a govenment assasin… called op12
his enhancements are… a harddrive unit and new left eye optics(eg Camera)… working as an assasin for many years… he was
given the Opportunity to have certain enhancements augmented into his body… one of those enhancments was a harddrive unit.
the reason he opted to have this enhancment was to enable him to down load mission objectives on the fly (eg maps.schematics & other intergrated systems) also linked to his left eye optics…
He also opted for a new left eye… this gives him an X1000 zoom function… also once linked to his harddrive unit the use of filters come into play (eg infered vison.target locking)…

the medical procedure he went through to get these where a military first… scientists had to come up with a way to compress his brain size buy half whilst keeping all functionality… after compressing the brain they then sliced they left hemisphere of his
skull off and added a new metal bay in its place… then a harddive was fashined to look like the left side of his skull… once his missions are completed the harddrives are destroyed…
The procedure the scientists used to add the camera eye where as follows… his left eye was removed… new precision lazers where used to slice out the iris and pupil with out damageing nerve endings and then the camera was added and his eye reconsituted back in to his head…

the concepts for this are on the fifth post…
i had to get them scanned


#3

here is another rough model… im focasing the image in this area… i also have some other ideas for the pupil similar to a camera zoom … still need to upload my pencils… the scanners on the blink…


#4

Very interesting, but don’t forget to upload some concept sketches.

:thumbsup:


#5

:buttrock:
Yeah !
Very interesting concept
Clean Modeling !
I stay tuned :slight_smile:


#6

Sweet, now you just need to maintain that level of detail for the rest of the body :smiley:


#7

Hi All… Sorry it took so long to get
this scanned… anyways this is my concept… the details are on the first post… oh he is also sporting a suit by me…


#8

OK… hi all…
ive started to model the eye…based on my concept & early model roughs. im happy with the look i have.but i still want to add more cabling to the iris area… And more fine detail like little screws everywhere…

double click image for blown up version…


#9

hi again…

almost finished the eye… still have to work on the pupil area… dont know if i went overboard with the wires though?.. :slight_smile:


#10

Wow! I like it, its really cool! I would say to keep the wires.


#11

:buttrock:
it’s very very Interesting the graphism suggested by the modeling around the pupil.
i think it’s a pity that we does not see any more the retina with the element in the shape of rotor of turbo engine.
The modeling is very clean.
:applause:
More more !!!


#12

Hi all… here is a front on preview rend
im at a stalemate here now… im thinking
about remodelling the iris area… having
cable come across the front of the eye then dip down into the pupil the space inbetween the pipe would be filled with some sort of clear fluid… i will do some test tomorrow to see if it works…
although i will continue on with what i have at the moment … cheers


#13

ok… here is the pupil ive been working on… its similar to a camera zoom… the way it works… what do ya’s
think?


#14

i would put a diaphragm like cameras have.
Perhaps the way that iris is going out
seems to much “telescopistic” perhaps
you should use Nano mechanism with microgears.

Look at that websiteParadise:
i’m very astonished than nobody worked on a concept with MEMS…
however it is a hudge subject of inspiration :rolleyes:

Good modelling.
Idea trivial.


#16

Nice modelling, very clean and neat!
But remember the whole contest idea, don’t go to details too soon. I would suggest you design the whole man first, then go to details. That way you can maintain the same style and detail for the whole character.

I would really like to see pics of the head compartment. Maybe drawings of the head how it would look like…

But nice job, looking forward to see the next milestone!:buttrock:

:applause: I agree, with Wizzi, but anyway… you have very nice modeling skill that I have seen so far here. very details. Also your models must be heavy! so I wonder what computer and graphic cards do you used… PM me back cause I’m looking for new still for my com too! :thumbsup:


#18

Hi ParadiseFlyBird,
very impressive work :eek:
I already love your creation, but i agree with other mate about details :slight_smile: keep secrets and your creation will gain in interest :wink:
i keep a ‘real’ eye on your work, it s really beautifull


#19

first of all thanks for all the comments and crits guys… :thumbsup:

Harnelbe… i will play around with your ideas… but im am unsure
how i would add them… Pm me … maybe you could help

oh thanks for that site it’s rockin… the mind boggles…

Wizzi… you’re right man… sometimes i get ahead of myself
and get into a modelling frenzy…
:bounce: i will get somemore concepts scanned with close ups
of the head compartment…

Mikekrush, Lovekat , MITRICH , Virum , riki & Mirage_fr
thanks for ya comments … cheers guys :beer:

all good luck to yous all…

oK… Hi again…

here is the other iris model test i promised… the cables can move via
a catipiller motor system… to dailate the pupil

this is only a test to see other posibilites… all crits welcome what do you guys think 1st or 2nd :slight_smile:

i will also post a pick of the cables cross sectioned

cheers peoples
